| Try: | |
| ``` | |
| $ sudo apt-get install golang-go | |
| ``` | |
| ... but if that's too old for you, try: | |
| ``` | |
| $ sudo apt-get install golang-1.8-go | |
| ``` | |
| Or use Go's official (non-Deb) downloads: | |
| https://golang.org/dl/ | |
| If you're using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and are unable to install `golang-1.8-go`, then you can also use the `longsleep/golang-backports` PPA: | |
| ``` | |
| sudo add-apt-repository ppa:longsleep/golang-backports | |
| sudo apt-get update | |
| sudo apt-get install golang-go | |
| ``` | |
